Acești 1.000.000 de români trebuie să își schimbe buletinul. De la 3 august 2026, cărțile lor de identitate nu mai sunt valabile

Over 1 million Romanians in Italy must replace their paper identity cards by August 3, 2026, as they will no longer be valid. This change affects those holding the carta d’identità cartacea, which lacks security features and biometric data. The new electronic identity card (CIE) must be requested at local municipalities, and obtaining appointments may become challenging. However, Romanian identity cards remain valid for travel, and this measure does not affect them.
